Happy Birthday Lindsie and No Peeking!

Well, today is the last day of November--WHAT??? I know. I can't believe it either. Today is also my middle girl's birthday. Lindsie turns 11 today! I can't believe that either. For being a tiny 4 lbs., 7 oz. (two months early), she's grown into a beautiful young girl. Happy Birthday, Lindsie!

Getting to be that age, Christmas is fun, but she's getting pretty curious about her gifts. I thought this card was super fitting for her age and I'm going to give it to her with a little somethin' somethin' in it for Christmas. A gift card of some sort? NO PEEKING!

I used the new Peeking stamp set from The Cat's Pajamas for this, paired with some fun colors inspired by some of my favorite Christmas paper this year from My Mind's Eye. Of course, I had to add a little Kraft in there!

SUSIE Q-TIP: Stamp and color things that are inherently "brown" on Kraft cardstock. I love Papertrey's Kraft especially for this. I have an order due to arrive any second. For real.

Good Q-tip about stamping primarily brown images on kraft - the edges outside the image are much softer looking for PJ than when I stamp him on white, so I'm going to have to remember this next time! :)
